The Exatel network was formed by the combination of the infrastructure of Tel-Energo and Telbank, creating the second largest Telecommunications infrastructure in Poland.
The network covers over 15,000 route kilometres, accesses over 400 cities and communities and has interconnection points with all the major national and international operators and ISPs.
"As the second largest service provider in Poland, choosing the right technology is critical to Exatel," said Pawel Olech, Vice-president at the Management Board of Exatel SA.
"The Transmode TS-Series provides us with all the right functionality, at the right price and with unparalleled simplicity of use".
"The system is extremely robust and the Plug-and-Play functionality allows Exatel to quickly and simply roll out new services to our existing and new customers, strengthening our position in the competitive Polish telecommunications market".
The TS-Series deployment provides Exatel with a flexible, modular and scalable xWDM platform.
Initially supporting low cost CWDM wavelengths, the system has the scalability to extend to additional CWDM and DWDM wavelengths in-service.
Using patented Intelligent WDM protocol recognition and functionality such as SFP/XFP pluggable optics the TS-Series provides network operators and enterprises with a true plug and play experience, greatly reducing network and service turn up times and costs.
"The Exatel project is significant win for FCA and Transmode," said Bjorn Andersson, Transmode's Vice President Sales.
"Working together, we have provided Exatel with a very effective Technology and Services package, meeting their requirements and securing the project against stiff competition".
"We look forward to the long term relationship with Exatel and continuing to provide them with the most competitive and effective metro networking solution".
